A river of tears, since you’ve been gone,
Flowing, as life moves on,
In its waters, your memory’s drawn,
Since you left, at dawn.
Each tear, a moment we shared,
In my heart, you’ve forever cared,
In my cries, your love declared,
In this river, my soul bared.
River of tears, through the land of my heart,
In its flow, we’re never apart,
Your love, an eternal art,
In this river, you’re a part.

In the quiet, your presence, a sense,
Your laughter, a missing essence,
In silence, your love’s presence.
Empty chairs, unspoken words,
In every corner, memories heard,
Your voice, a song of a bird,
In silence, your love stirred.
Silent rooms, speak your name,
In their stillness, your love remains,
Though gone, your love sustains,
In these rooms, your memory reigns.

An angel mother, I can’t see,
In your embrace, I long to be,
With your wings, you cover me.
In each step, I feel your guide,
Your wisdom, in me, resides,
In your absence, I abide,
With unseen wings, by my side.
Angel mother, though you’re gone,
Your love, in me, lives on,
In my heart, you’re never withdrawn,
With your wings, I’m never alone.

Values you taught, love you gave,
In your legacy, I’m brave,
Your spirit, kind and suave,
In your lessons, I pave.
Mom’s legacy, in me, lives,
In every moment, it gives,
Your love, a sieve,
In your legacy, I believe.

Missing you, ever so much,
In pines, your comfort, such,

In these pines, your acclaim.

Flickering flame, in the night,
Guiding me, with your light,
In your glow, everything’s right,
Candle’s glow, a loving sight.
Though the candle may wane,
Your love, forever will remain,
In each flame, your domain,
Candle’s glow, in the main.
